>>West Auckland.

>>I actually work for Smith + Nephew during the day, and after hours my alter ego takes hold, and I change into *WEASELSOFT MAN* [cue lightning and thunder effects]. Well now there's two of us. ( I don't mean me and my ego )
>>WeasleSoft does mainly contract stuff, I am doing a couple of projects for some UK based co's, business programs, call management software, contanct management...
>>At S+M oops! S+N < S > I am integrating our PC's with our AS400 using Vfox as a front end (which explains my other posting in the client/server area). Having now sorted that little problem out, I can get into the fun stuff.

>>What about you guys/guyesses?

>Just a guyess - I work part-time for Sales Technologies who do the Great Elk and Vantive. We don't run to job titles but I'm basically just a programmer.
>I started on the Elk and have moved onto Vantive (no fox code there). In my spare time I'm the IT manager for my self employed husband (ie "why has my pc crashed again!"), a mum, and creator of an accounting package for residential property investors (landlords to you and me). Keeps me out of mischief to say the least.

>I'm really impressed by the people I've been coming across who live and work here but whose customers are offshore. I'm sure it's an increasing trend. Who knows, when I get more experience I might be able to do this too.
